Hi,

The Open MPI potentially uses WMI to launch remote processes, so the WMI has to be configured correctly. There are two links talking about how to set it up in README.WINDOWS file:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa393266(VS.85).aspx
http://community.spiceworks.com/topic/578

For testing whether it works or not, you can use following command:
wmic /node:remote_node_ip process call create notepad.exe

then log onto the other Windows, check in the task manager if the notepad.exe process is created (don't forget to delete it afterwards).

If that works, this command will also work:
mpirun -np 2 -host host1 host2 notepad.exe

Please try to run the above two test commands, if they all works you application should also work. Just let me know if you have any question or trouble with that.

Hi,

I'm trying to run an MPI code using processes on a remote machine.

I've connected the 2 machines using a crossover cable and they are communicating with each other(I'm getting ping replies and I can access drives on one another).

When I run mpiexec --host /system_name/ MPI_Test.exe, I get the following error:

C:\OpenMPI\openmpi-1.6\build\Debug>mpiexec -host SOUMIWHP4500449 MPI_Test.exe

Could anyone tell me what I'm missing?

I've configured MPI on VS Express 2010 and I'm able to run MPI programs on one system.

On the other computer, I pasted the MPI_Test.exe file in the same location as the calling computer.

Thanks,
Vimal
